Sorry Tom, we’re not buying into this.īut hey, if the movie touched you in a very special place, then who are we to stop you? It will hit theaters on February 8, 2011. This looks kind of ridiculous if not totally manipulative (footage from the Tiananmen Square protests? bombings in Vietnam? really?) and the kind of simplistic hucksterism that fake religious types use to hawk their wares on late night television. Well, isn’t that just a big ol’ pile of mushy feel-goodery. Tom Shadyac, the director of “ The Nutty Professor,” “ Liar Liar,” “ Bruce Almighty” and “ Ace Ventura: Pet Detective” is just coming out of an odd few years following his last film, “ Evan Almighty.” After a deadly cycling accident, the director sold his 17,000-square-foot mansion in Pasadena, gave away most of his money and possessions, now lives in a trailer park by choice and has spent the past little while putting together a documentary about these experiences and what he’s learned in “ I Am.”Ī trailer for the film has landed and it’s a lot of New Age-y mumbo jumbo, with the long-haired Shadyac wasting a lot of interesting people’s time by asking them about how humanity can improve, and discovers along the way that we are all connected.
